The present disclosure provides for an automated spray system (100) to produce an elastomeric pad on a railroad tie. The automated spray system (100) includes a two-component spray system (102) for spraying a two-component reaction mixture to produce the elastomeric pad on the railroad tie. The automated spray system further includes a gantry system (140) having girder (146) that supports the spray applicator.

A system and method for customizing the solution used in the sunless spray tanning process are provided. In at least one form, the solution is volumetrically mixed at the point of use, allowing for greater customization and a more consistent tanning result. Providing improved customization at the point of use is accomplished, in at least one form, by using a two-part tanning solution: one part being a high concentration DHA solution and another part being an activator solution. The two parts are mixed with one another at the point of use based on user preferences at the time of the tanning session to provide a specific final DHA concentration for a customized tanning result.

Apparatus and methods for precise measurement, dispensation and application of organic compounds, in particular cannabis-derived additives, to products for human consumption. The apparatus comprises a combination apparatus comprising one or more reservoirs containing the additives and a dispensing assembly operative to transfer the additives from the one or more reservoirs in precisely controlled quantities. The additives may be liquid or powdered. The apparatus further comprises an application apparatus for applying the measured additive to a dosing target. The application apparatus includes a first electrostatic charging device in operative connection to the dosing target and a second electrostatic charging device of an opposite polarity charge in operative connection with the additives, such that the additives are attracted to the dosing target.

The present invention relates to a perfume dispensing device, the device being electronically controlled and the actuation of perfume spraying being performed via an actuator (12) located on or under a device housing (1). All components of the device are located on or in the housing (1), wherein the housing also accommodates a control circuit (10) for controlling the device, which may optionally include a system (13) for wireless communication with a smart device (14) having a dedicated application uploaded, through which the user sets the desired parameters. The device may include several storage containers (2), which allows the user to select the desired perfume or to personalise the perfume via a dedicated application. The actuator is actuated by pressing or touching the actuator (12) or via an external device.

This invention discloses a mechanical boost type cup spray-washing unit integrated with temperature-adjustment and press-control. This unit may regulate the mixing proportion of the cold water and hot water. It in combination with the boosting spray-wash effectively dissolves and washes the residues and juice on the inner wall of cup. This unit is clever in structure, integrates the temperature-adjustment and flush-washing, is directly hidden in the intermediate of the desk installation holes, never occupies surplus space of the kitchen desk, and may be installed in the standard small-hole of the kitchen water-trough desk without extra-opening, or may be directly fixed above the bottom of the water-trough after removal of the drain-panel.

A plural component dispensing system includes a first heated hose, a second heated hose, a controller, and a dispensing device. The first heated hose and the second heated hose include electrical wires that supply heat to the first and second heated hoses to heat fluid components within the first and second heated hoses. The first and second heated hoses are electrically coupled to the controller and are fluidly coupled to the dispensing device. The controller is configured to control and alternate the electrical power supplied to the first heated hose and the second heated hose to heat the first heated hose independent of the second heated hose.

A device for metering one or more powder(s) (A, B) to produce a flow (23) of powder(s) and of a carrier gas at a given volume flow rate, comprises: ⋅at least a first source (25) suitable for supplying a first flow (27) comprising a first powder (A) and a first carrier gas (G1) substantially at the given volume flow rate, ⋅a source (33) of a carrier gas suitable for supplying an adjustment carrier gas flow (35) substantially at the given volume flow rate, ⋅an outlet junction (49) for emitting said flow of powder(s) and of carrier gas, ⋅a first proportional valve (59), ⋅an adjustment proportional valve (75), and ⋅a control system (21) suitable for controlling at least the first proportional valve and the adjustment proportional valve so that the flow of powder(s) and of carrier gas has a volume flow rate substantially equal to the given volume flow rate.

A multi-component fluid delivery system includes a heater system. The heater system includes an improved fluid preheating system based on a high conductivity fluid heat exchange manifold that is coupled to external heater elements (e.g., powered via electricity). These techniques can provide more surface area for heating fluid and is external to the fluid passages, making service or replacement much easier. These techniques can utilize etched foil or wire wound heater elements that operate at a lower internal temperature than cartridge heaters, and thus can be inherently more reliable.

Radiation shield and methods for manufacturing a radiation shield are provided herein, the method includes identifying a substrate for the radiation shield; identifying at least one material for cold spraying on the substrate; applying by cold spray a coating of the at least one material on the substrate thereby obtaining a radiation shield. The radiation shield is lighter, thinner, and more efficient compared to conventional radiation shields.

A mix on exit sprayer having a water tank and a body the includes a chemical cartridge receiving cavity. A pump move water from the tank to a mixing chamber and a piston drives chemical concentrate from the cartridge into the mixing chamber. A venturi style mixing element mixes the water and concentrate and the pump moves the mixed fluid from the mixing chamber to a spray wand from which it can be expelled.
